2f5590bf38 olm: Allow decryption functions to define how to handle unicode decode errors.
This patch changes the decryption functions not to fail if there was an
unicode decode error while converting the decrypted bytes plaintext into
a native python string.

Characters that cannot be decoded as unicode are now replaced with the
unicode replacement character (U+FFFD).

The old behaviour of raising an UnicodeDecodeError can be achieved by
passing the "strict" error handling scheme to the decrypt function.

e3d6673371 python: Import improved python bindings.
This commit imports the python bindings from:
    https://github.com/poljar/python-olm

The bindings are imported at commit c44b145818520d69eaaa350fb95afcb846125e0f

Minor modifications were made while importing:
    - Removed travis config
    - Removed Arch Linux PKGBUILD
    - Removed the html docs, they can be rebuild by running make html in
      the docs folder
    - Slightly modified the README

The new bindings feature some improvements over the old ones:
    - Python 2 and 3 support
    - Automatic memory management
    - Automatic memory clearing before it is freed
    - Type signatures via the python typing module
    - Full test coverage
    - Properties are utilized where it makes sense (e.g. account.id)
